× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Why do you still have Google's public DNS server in there?
Because ServIT wants it there. The IBM i is in NatNet, not here.

Probably don't need the internal ones unless you have in house DNS
requirements for local host names.
We do, a couple items.

8.8.8.8 is. You can also add 8.8.4.4. Probably don't need the internal

I use these Google DNS servers exclusively.

To answer your question, I don't think it will make much difference.

We changed from 2 dedicated DNS servers to doing it via the Sonicwall
firewall (high availability pair). So our DNS servers for the IBM i went
from

192.168.0.225
192.168.0.226
8.8.8.8

to

192168.0.250
8.8.8.8

Now the question. In the CHGTCPDMN command is this parm:

INLDMNSVR(*ROTATE)

which means it rotates among DNS servers for balancing. Before there
were
2 *internal* addresses, now there's just 1. Do I want to change this
parm
to *FIRST to always use the internal server first? If so, does it take
effect immediately? Or do I have to do something more?

Thanks.
